What consistent scalp-first care looks like

From thinning and fragile to nourished, stronger-feeling hair

Before: more hair than usual coming out in the brush or shower, a part that looks wider in certain light, and hair that feels finer and less dense through the crown. After: a scalp that feels genuinely nourished and supported, hair that feels stronger and less fragile at the roots, and a routine that makes it clear something purposeful is being done. Most customers describe the most noticeable early change as scalp comfort - a settled, cared-for feeling that builds with consistent use. Changes in hair density and appearance are gradual and build over weeks of daily use.

Did You Know

DHT-related hair thinning, the most common form of pattern hair loss in both men and women, progresses in a specific way: DHT binds to androgen receptors in susceptible follicles, gradually shortening the hair growth cycle and shrinking the follicle over time. Left unaddressed, the follicle eventually produces only fine, colourless vellus hair before becoming dormant. This process is slow but cumulative, which is why early intervention (before significant miniaturisation has occurred) is considerably more effective than acting after the fact. Capixyl™, the active ingredient in the BioScalp DHTI Control Shampoo and Tonic, is formulated to target 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme that drives DHT production at the scalp, and to support the extracellular matrix structures that keep the follicle anchored. The earlier in the process it is used, the more follicle function it has to work with.

    Tackles the cause

    Capixyl™ is formulated to target 5-alpha-reductase, the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into DHT at the scalp, and to support the structural proteins that anchor the hair follicle. Rather than addressing the appearance of thinning after the fact, this kit supports the scalp environment before follicle miniaturisation becomes severe.

    Fortifying hair roots

    Capixyl™'s peptide component, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, is shown to stimulate key proteins in the extracellular matrix surrounding the hair bulb, including collagen and laminin, which are critical for the mechanical anchorage that keeps hair rooted in place. Stronger anchoring means less fall during washing and styling, and hair that takes longer to loosen from the follicle as thinning progresses.

    Strength from root to tip

    This is a scalp-first system. The Cleanser primes, the Shampoo treats, and the Tonic nourishes continuously, delivering amino acids, Biotin, Ginseng, and Niacinamide to the follicle environment throughout the day. Every step reinforces a scalp that is better conditioned to support stronger, more resilient hair from the root outward.

Block DHT, Boost Growth

DHT (dihydrotestosterone) is the primary hormonal driver of the most common form of pattern hair loss in both men and women. It acts at the follicle receptor level, gradually shortening the growth cycle and reducing follicle size over time. The BioScalp DHTI Control Shampoo features Red Clover Extract (Trifolium pratense), rich in biochanin A, which helps inhibit the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme responsible for DHT production at the scalp. Paired with Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, this two-part Capixyl™ complex addresses DHT activity and follicle support in a single, targeted active. The earlier it is incorporated into a daily routine, the more effectively it can support the scalp environment against progressive thinning.

Capixyl™

Capixyl™ is a patented biomimetic peptide complex developed specifically for scalp and follicle care. It combines Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, which supports the extracellular matrix proteins that structurally anchor the hair bulb, with Red Clover Extract, which targets the enzymatic driver of DHT production. Together, these two components address hair thinning from two distinct directions: reducing the hormonal signal that triggers miniaturisation, and reinforcing the structural environment the follicle needs to remain anchored and productive. Capixyl™ is present in both the DHTI Control Shampoo and the Advanced Scalp Tonic, providing treatment during the wash and continued support between washes.

Healthy Scalp, Healthy Hair

Hair cannot thrive in a congested or nutritionally depleted scalp environment. The Scalp Cleanser clears the physical buildup - sebum, dead skin, product residue - that partially blocks follicles and prevents treatment actives from penetrating. The Tonic then delivers a daily supply of amino acids, Biotin, Ginseng, Burdock Root, and Niacinamide to maintain a follicle environment that is nourished, circulated, and balanced. Together, these two steps ensure the DHTI Control Shampoo is not just working in isolation; it is part of a system that prepares the scalp before and sustains it after every wash.

Don't take our word for it

I’ve always had genetic thinning around the temples and oily crown. Prescribed options weren’t an option for me, so I tried this plant‑based system. From week 4 onward I saw fewer strands on my pillow, and after 8 weeks my temples looked markedly denser. My barber even commented that my new growth looks stronger and more anchored, something I hadn’t seen in years.

I noticed my hair was thinner along my post‑partum parting, and my scalp often felt tight. After 6 weeks of using the full 3‑step kit, I see less hair in the shower drain and my scalp actually feels more balanced. My hair used to feel fine at the roots and limp at the tips; now it feels thicker right at the crown, and my part is visibly fuller.

Karen, 45, Melbourne

Post‑menopause my hair felt fragile and lifeless, and I had scalp dryness despite using ‘hydrating’ shampoos. This kit changed that feeling entirely. Within a month it feels softer, smoother, and far more resilient.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a hormone derived from testosterone that plays a complex role in hair growth. While it contributes to body and facial hair development, it is also a key factor in androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss). In individuals genetically sensitive to DHT, it binds to hair follicle receptors on the scalp, causing follicular miniaturization. This process shortens the hair growth cycle, leading to thinner, weaker strands until the follicles eventually stop producing hair. Over time, this results in hair thinning and balding, especially in men. DHT blockers, such as prescribed medications or natural ingredients like saw palmetto, can help reduce its effects and slow hair loss. However, DHT does not affect all hair follicles equally. It primarily impacts scalp hair while stimulating growth in other areas, like the beard. Read why DHT causes hair loss here.

Hereditary hair thinning, also known as androgenetic alopecia, is closely linked to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a byproduct of testosterone. In individuals with a genetic predisposition, DHT binds to hair follicle receptors on the scalp, causing them to shrink over time. This miniaturization shortens the hair growth cycle, leading to thinner, weaker hair until follicles stop producing new strands altogether.

Hormonal scalp concerns, such as excess sebum production or scalp inflammation, can also be influenced by DHT. High DHT levels may overstimulate sebaceous glands, making the scalp oilier and more prone to dandruff or irritation. This can further weaken hair follicles, accelerating hair loss.

Managing DHT-related hair thinning often involves using DHT blockers like prescribed medication or natural inhibitors like saw palmetto, along with scalp treatments to maintain a healthy follicular environment.

Capixyl is an advanced hair growth complex that combines Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3, a bioactive peptide, and Red Clover Extract, which contains Biochanin A, a natural DHT blocker. This innovative formula supports hair roots by strengthening follicles, reducing inflammation, and improving scalp health.

Capixyl works in several ways:

  1. DHT Regulation – Biochanin A helps inhibit 5-alpha reductase, the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone into DHT, a key factor in hair thinning.
  2. Follicle Strengthening – Acetyl Tetrapeptide-3 stimulates proteins like collagen and laminin, reinforcing the hair root’s structure.
  3. Scalp Health – It reduces inflammation and oxidative stress, creating a healthier environment for hair growth.
  4. Hair Growth Stimulation – It extends the anagen (growth) phase, promoting thicker, stronger hair over time.

First, wet the hair and use the scalp cleanser to remove dirt, excess sebum and environmental pollutants and prepare the scalp for deep cleansing. Wash off the scalp cleanser.

Then, apply the DHTI control shampoo and massage it into the scalp. Make sure the scalp is thoroughly cleansed. Wash off the shampoo and dry your hair.

Finally, after drying your hair, spray the scalp tonic onto the scalp and massage it into the scalp for maximum effectiveness.

The scalp cleanser is to be used before shampooing to prepare the scalp for deeper cleansing. The cleanser removes dirt and cleanses pores, allowing gentle exfoliation that helps the scalp absorb nutrients.

The Advanced Scalp Tonic is a soothing, nutrient-packed formula designed to restore scalp balance and vitality. Enriched with burdock root and Panax ginseng, it calms dryness, refreshes the scalp, and promotes a healthy foundation for hair growth.

Some users notice less shedding within a few weeks, but fuller results typically take 6–12 weeks of consistent use.

Yes, but they’re designed to work best as a system. The cleanser preps the scalp, the DHT inhibiting shampoo treats, and the tonic provides daily protection and nutrients.

Yes, the BioScalp DHTI Control Kit is safe and effective for all genders experiencing early hair thinning.

Absolutely. The formulas are gentle, pH-balanced, and free from harsh sulphates.

The BioScalp DHTI Control Kit is best for early-stage hereditary thinning or hormonal imbalances. It helps preserve hair density and prevent further loss, but may not regrow hair in advanced balding.
